Golang Job: Software Developer

Challenge - Build the brains of our satellite IoT system
Come join a team that has the audacious goal to build a communication system that changes the world. Hiber delivers connectivity to sensor systems (IoT) with a global satellite footprint. It is low power and low cost so we enable use cases that would not be possible otherwise, because of connectivity issues. This enables global climate monitoring, precision farming, marine life protection and many other ways to improve life on earth.

We control the complete chain of software in our system, from the firmware of the modems on the ground, to the satellite on board computers and the backend where all the data is processed. This means we have a broad spectrum of environments. We run on bare metal, FreeRTOS or Linux and implement in C, C++, Golang, Kotlin/Java, Python and Javascript.

You will mainly be focusing on the data once it's on the ground; data processing, APIs and tools to help us manage our network, optimising processes to handle large amounts of data, or building API features for customers.

While your day to day is usually focused on the above, you are encouraged to contribute where you can. You will be a great fit if you feel at home with different languages and tools, and are comfortable in a bash shell.
